Got to admit the moment the cars came in I was well impressed and good on Skoda UK for bringing them along.

Now I've got to decide should I hold off until the Yeti goes on sale in the UK or shall I go ahead and think about a Roomster Scout for March 2010, choices choices!!

If you want an off-road style vehicle there's no contest - Yeti all the way

I was really impressed with them. Much nicer in the metal than in pictures. I certainly wouldn't mind a CR170 4x4 elegance.

:thumbup: I totally agree - I was thinking about getting a Golf 4motion when my Fabia VRS runs out of warranty in March but this looks a good option. I'm a part time farmer living in the middle of nowhere and in the snow last year I had to keep borrowing my Dad's car (as well as continually pushing my luck in the vrs driving across wet fields) - so an economical but nippy 4x4 would be ideal

The Golf is a great car, but it's pretty low to the ground. Octavia 4x4/Scout or the Yeti would be a better option if your looking to tackle off-road or snow.

Plus the Golf 4motion is no longer avaiable in the UK, I think an 07 plate would be the newest one you could find.

I was a little suprised that there wasn't a greater boot capacity
Likewise, I parked my Scout next to them to compare space, size, ride height etc - the boot on the Yeti is tiny, and with a spare wheel fitted it'll be even smaller! On the plus side with the rear end being nearly vertical you would be able to load it up with square boxes nicely...

I must admit that the boot capacity is the only concern I have with the Yeti. I don't know whether it will be big enough compared to my current Octavia Estate.

Yep, bootspace has ruled out the Yeti for me, I had great hopes that it would be a good dog-friendly motor. I reckon I'll be going for another Octavia vRS, a combi this time I think.
